Does Toby really track my location?

Yes, according to the Chrome Web Store privacy disclosure, Toby collects location data, web history, user activity, website content, and personally identifiable information.

What about Toby's mobile apps?

Toby does have iOS and Android apps, which Sessionat currently doesn't. If mobile access is critical, consider using Sessionat on desktop and a different solution for mobile.

Can I import all my Toby collections?
